We did 24 engagement activities between July and September 2026. This included:
- surveys online and on paper
- community forums
- voting cards
- a places-you-love map
- an estate session
- a staff survey
- a sticker map
- a partner, business and voluntary sector survey
This gave us 1,349 contributions from residents, staff, partners and the voluntary sector.
From this we identified 11 themes and patterns that ran from them.
We organised the ideas we tested during the engagement activities and then refined them with senior leaders, workshops and members in September.
We turned this into our vision: "the borough that creates".
